| VAPENLÖS [JAG VILL MÖTA...] | I WANT TO MEET... |
| | |
| Rustad, rak och pansarsluten | Armed, upright and shielded in armour |
| gick jag fram – | I went forth - |
| men av skräck var brynjan gjuten | but from fear was the coat of mail cast |
| och av skam. | and from shame. |
| | |
| Jag vill kasta mina vapen, | I want to throw down my weapons, |
| svärd och sköld. | sword and shield. |
| All den hårda fiendskapen | All the stark hostility |
| var min köld. | was my coldness. |
| | |
| Jag har sett de torra fröna | I have seen the dry seeds |
| gro till slut. | finally grow. |
| Jag har sett det ljusa gröna | I have seen the light green |
| vecklas ut. | unfurl. |
| | |
| Mäktigt är det späda livet | Mighty is the tenderness of life |
| mer än järn, | stronger than iron, |
| fram ur jordens hjärta drivet | driven out of the heart of the Earth |
| utan värn. | defenceless. |
| | |
| Våren gryr i vinterns trakter | Spring dawns in winter regions, |
| där jag frös. | where I froze. |
| Jag vill möta livets makter | I want to meet the forces of life |
| vapenlös. | weaponless. |
